1.Use the [Volume] knob to adjust the overall volume level.

Rotating the knob clockwise increases the volume; counterclockwise rotation decreases it.

2.Use the [Brilliance] knob to adjust the overall sound quality.

Rotating the knob clockwise makes the tone brighter; rotating it counterclockwise makes the sound more subdued.

If the FP-5 is positioned against a wall, you will probably want to rotate the knob more to the left.

* Headphones are not included. Consult your Roland dealer if you want to purchase.

Some Notes on Using Headphones

To prevent damage to the cord, handle the headphones only by the headset or the plug.

The headphones may be damaged if the volume is too high when they are plugged in. Lower the volume on the FP-5 before plugging in the headphones.

To prevent possible auditory damage, loss of hearing, or damage to the headphones, the headphones should not be used at an excessively high volume. Use the headphones at a moderate volume level.
